Apple Placing Orders for Tablet Components? Connectors, 10-Inch Screen
Taiwan's Economic Daily paper claims that Cheng Uei Precision Industry has received an order for "connectors" for Apple's new Tablet PCs. According to the report the company is likely to begin shipping in the 3rd quarter of 2010.
Meanwhile Digitimes reports that Innolux, a panel-making subsidiary of Foxconn, will be the supplier for the touch panels in Apple's Tablet PC. The screen size is said to be 10-inches for the rumored device.
These reports add to the increasing number of rumors about Apple's upcoming Tablet. Just last week, Apple was said to be planning a late January media event to launch the device which would ship later in 2010. Even more recently have been discoveries that Apple has trademarked the "iSlate" name presumably as a possible name for the device.

:p - - and to think that my attention has been somewhat veering to netbook form factor type products ! no, seriously DESPITE already owning an Air + iPhone, if this thing is 'right' and is powerful enough and displays correctly including the 'correct' UI then we could be looking at another market changer... agreed ?

Nothing wrong with the iphone OS, specialized apps make it more usable than regular osX. 10" is a bit big though, i'm hoping for a smaller device.
